The surface temperature of a semitransparent wall, placed in a convective medium and exposed to external radiation (e.g., building window glasses) can be well approached using a remote sensing technique associated with a correction model. Radiometric measurement is first carried out on an opaque small size black target, which is glued on the concerned surface. This measurement can then be corrected to get the 'real' temperature through a model solving a combined conduction-radiation heat transfer problem. 13 refs.
